And guess what? It's already being dubbed as a massive failure aka Faildozer. It's already been benchmarked on multiple sites and the performance is very lackluster at best. My current Phenom II 1100T overclocked performs better than the FX-8150 Bulldozer which is actually kinda sad and disappointed me greatly. Bulldozer's been in development for 5 years now and it barely is on par with 2006 Core 2 Duo CPUs. For around the same price range the Intel i5-2500, i5-2500K, i7-2600 and i6-2600K Sandy Bridge CPUs are the better for the price versus performance. I actually have no reason to upgrade from my Phenom II to Bulldozer since the performance gains are very minimal. They would of been better off adding a few more cores to the Phenom II series.

Personally, I decided I'm going for Intel's high end Sandy Bridge-E next month or Ivy Bridge in March-April.

I don't over clock my CPU ever. Don't have the proper cooling to do so.  :-\

Which would you choose between a Phenom 9600 and a FX-8150?
